[QUOTE="Riggen&Jiggen, post: 186763, member: 564"] I have to state my opinion on fishing this area and it also applies to most fishing situations. I have fished both the bridges and in a boat in that area for about 30 years. As a shore fisherman you are limited to where you are going to fish that is actually productive. Pretty much everybody knows that the best spot is near the bridges because of the channel. With fire line or power pro and a 3/8 jig you can easily cast over 100 feet and most due that are fishing the bridge. If you are in a boat you can fish the whole lake so in my opinion is that you go fish some where else. If you try to stay in the channel in a boat by the bridge you are asking for trouble. So it basically boils down to common sense and experience. If you don't have one or the other in that area you are going to get bitched at. I personally don't fish off the bridges that much anymore up there because of all the dip shits and I have had a few run ins myself. There is plenty of different areas to fish in the fall that you don't have to stand shoulder to shoulder or play bumper boats to catch fish. I never have fished the channels at Devils lake in the spring but I can imagine it is about the same. So basically what I am saying is if you don't have experience in an area try to use some outdoors common sense. [/QUOTE]
